Science is beautiful.
Every day, researchers use the Beckman Institute's core facilities to conduct barrier-breaking research. They also create stunning images along the way. Click on each image to learn more.

Beckman Institute Research Image Contest
Each spring, Beckman hosts a research image contest that encourages researchers to submit images captured while conducting research. The contest includes categories for undergraduates, graduates, postdoctoral or staff researchers, and faculty members.
Members of the Beckman community are invited to enter, as are those who work outside Beckman but have used the institute's core facilities, like the Biomedical Imaging Center or Imaging Technology Group, to capture images.
Leaders of those facilities, as well as the Beckman director and its new media design specialist, serve as blind judges. Winning images are framed and hung for a year in the Director's Conference Room within the Beckman administrative suite.
After that year, they're hung around the halls of the Beckman Institute.
Beckman researchers should watch their email and the Beckman Bulletin each spring for information about the contest. Questions can be directed to the Communications Office.
